Do these figures sound realistic?

Enquired about an Autotune for RRS 2006 2.7, they have replied as follows:
"yes it can be done ....at the moment your bhp is 188 after the tuning it would increase to 230 which is a 22% increase.... the torque at the moment is 440 and after the remap will increase to 505 which is a 15% increase and your fuel save will be18-20%..."

The torque figures are in Nm rather than lbft.

I'd have thought you could get those sort of power/torque increases (although 230bhp seems rather good). The fuel savings sounds like rubbish though. A 20% saving? Sounds too good to be true. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

I would say they are. Autologic do their own maps, which provide a 50bhp and 50lb ft increase, as seen here: http://www.rrsport.co.uk/forum/topic26412....=autologic

They are using Nm, instead of lbft to measure torque, as bigger numbers always appear better Whistle
